What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Two bowl barrows on Sopley Common, 680m and 640m north west of Brickfield Cottage as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Bowl barrows, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age (c. 2000–1500 BCE), are burial monuments typically containing cremated remains. These barrows are significant as they represent a common funerary tradition across southern Britain during the Bronze Age.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
